need to make Album created to be PRIVATE

sujit1779

Hi,

1) when I create an album using c# it shows VISIBILITY as "unlisted (anyone with the link)" whereas I need it to be "Private (Only Me)" , how can I do that?

See screenshot below

====
I am using below code url

secure.smugmug.com/services/api/rest/1.3.0/?method=smugmug.albums.create&Public=False&Protected=True&Searchable=False&Title=MyTesTAlbum


2) Also albums that are created appear under OTHERS category, I want it to appear not under that. How can I do that?

Strange... no reply.. looks like this forum is now not responding to users issues.

Hi there. It looks like you're using an older version of our API that predates the existence of private albums; there is no way to specify private as an option while using API 1.3.0. I'd recommend looking at our newest API version - 2.0. It supports all of our security and visibility options (as well as a number of other features that aren't accessible using the older APIs) and it's better supported. You can find documentation for getting started with API 2.0 here: https://api.smugmug.com/api/v2/doc

Using the newer API you should also have an easier time specifying the parent folder for albums that you create (folders replaced categories in the New SmugMug platform that we launched a couple of years ago).

Thanks for your answer and the direction I should proceed to.
